No competition: Indian fans over the moon as Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli end exile for IND vs AFG T20I series

Virat Kohli will be playing the T20I format after a long haul of 14 months.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Sunday (January 7) announced the Indian squad for upcoming IND vs AFG T20I series. Rohit Sharma will lead the home team as Virat Kohli has also returned to the T20I side after a decent haul. Meanwhile, the Indian fans expressed their happiness as both Rohit and Kohli made a comeback in the 20-over squad.

The Afghanistan series will begin from January 11 onwards, with the first T20I scheduled to be staged in Mohali’s Punjab Cricket Association Stadium, followed by the second on January 14 in Indore and the final tie on the 17th in Bengaluru’s Chinnaswamy Stadium.
